Family › Have Your Parents Ever Said The Words 'I LOVE YOU' To You? by PasD(op): 10:47am On Oct 08, 2014 |
Have your parents ever said the words 'I love you' to you?. How often do they say it? Why don't they say it? Does it mean they don't love us? Ofcourse they do! Or maybe, just maybe they are shy. Maybe they think the words are overrated or meant for only lovers. But here is the truth, the words 'I love you' sound better, sweeter, truther (don't mind my english), realer and more emotional when it comes from the mouth of our parents. Now if your parents have never openly said 'I love you' to you then break the jinx and tell tell them first. Do it today.....its so beautiful. Believe me they will not respond....it Will shock them for weeks. And if they respond, it will be with a shaky lips. Let's start from me! Heheheheh |

Christianity Etc › Re: What Man Of God Is Pastor Chris Oyakhilome - Femi Aribisala by PasD(m): 4:54pm On Sep 21, 2014 |
21st century fool. You no nothing abt God Titilayodeji13: www.vanguardngr.com/2014/09/man-god-pastor-chris-oyakhilome/
By Femi Aribisala
If our marriage breaks down, we must not fool ourselves and others by insisting we are standing in the righteousness of God
Christian pastors have become demigods. Their word is law; no questions asked. As Jesus said, they teach as doctrines the commandments of men. (Matthew 15:9). They come up with all kinds of self-serving principles that turn scripture on its head; just in order to justify themselves before men and control their lives. I want to discuss Pastor Chris Oyakhilome.
Man of God Pastor Chris is going through a rough patch at the moment. His wife, Pastor Anita, has filed for divorce, accusing him of having inappropriate relationships with female church members, among other things. Instead of waiting for his day in court, Pastor Chris has resorted to bogus interpretations of the scriptures; even proclaiming he is a “man of God” and therefore above sin.
Pastor Chris declared to his congregation through a live telecast: “There are preachers and there are men of God. I am not a preacher; I am a man of God, and I go in the way I’m asked to go. You have to understand something about a man of God. A man of God is not just someone who worships God or preaches God. A man of God is handpicked by God, set on course by God. If you study the scriptures, you will not find one man of God go against God, sinning against God.” What nonsense! Who made Pastor Chris a man of God? From which school of theology did he get his sinless distinction? John says: “If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.” (1 John 1:8-10).
David was a “man of God.” (2 Chronicles 8:14). Yet he committed adultery with Bathsheba. Balaam was a “man of God;” yet he became apostate. The “man of God” who came from Judah was killed by a lion because he sinned against God. (1 Kings 13:23-26).
But listen to what Pastor Chris says about himself: “We are not working in sin and living in sin and hoping that we can mix sin and righteousness together. We are the manifestation of his righteousness.” This is standing logic on its head. If our marriage breaks down, we must not fool ourselves and others by insisting like Pastor Chris that we are standing in the righteousness of God. There is no righteousness in divorce.
False Christ In the bid to justify himself, Pastor Chris is fabricating similarities between Jesus Christ and himself. He said: “Jesus Christ was accused by many – a lot of frivolous charges. There will always be those who would like for it to be true. But you know, in spite of the accusations against Jesus, it didn’t change who he was.”
However, Pastor Chris is not Jesus. Many accusations were indeed leveled against Jesus, but they were not made by his wife and they did not include inappropriate relationships with the opposite sex.
In short, Pastor Chris might be whoever he likes, but he is certainly not Jesus. Jesus says: “If I bear witness of myself, my witness is not true.” (John 5:31).
Yes, there are “men of God” in the Old Testament. However, Jesus created no such distinction in the New Testament; we are all “children of God.” Jesus says: “Unless you are converted and become as little children, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven.” (Matthew 18:3). Indeed, Jesus was implacably opposed to men like Pastor Chris, who sit on pedestals and claim to be holier-than-thou. He says:
“Their lives are perpetual fashion shows, embroidered prayer shawls one day and flowery prayers the next. They love to sit at the head table at church dinners, basking in the prominent positions, preening in the radiance of public flattery, receiving honorary degrees, and getting called ‘Doctor’ and ‘Reverend’. Don’t let people do that to you, put you on a pedestal like that. You all have a single Teacher, and you are all classmates.” (Matthew 23:5- .
Male chauvinism While Oyakhilome was busy elevating himself, he was also snidely putting down his wife. He said: “If you are married to a man of God, it doesn’t make you automatically mature. You can make mistakes; you can do something that is wrong. But some people expect the wife of a minister to definitely be at the level of that minister.”
This is an arrogant statement. What makes Oyakhilome more spiritually mature than his wife? By what measure and by what criteria did he come to ascribe this superiority to himself? Anita Oyakhilome was also a minister. She was a so-called pastor of a London branch of Christ Embassy. So why should Pastor Chris presume himself more “minister” than her.
If we are to accept Pastor Chris’ bogus self-appellation as a “man of God;” what disqualifies Anita from also being called a “woman of God?” Are women inferior to men? Oyakhilome said: “If a man of God is married, it doesn’t automatically mean that the wife of a man of God is therefore a woman of God. That’s not the way it is in the Bible. That’s why you don’t really find the wives of men of God mentioned in the Bible…. You never find their names.”
What poppycock! When one of the female pastors in his audience asked why the names of wives of the men of God were not mentioned in the bible; Oyakhilome’s response was a classic. He exclaimed: “Why? You ask God when you find him. Ask God when you find him!”
But it was not God who fabricated this theory that the wife of a man of God cannot also be a woman of God simply because wives’ names are not mentioned in the bible. It was Chris Oyakhilome. Therefore, it is up to Chris Oyakhilome to provide us with another bogus explanation.
Pastor Chris ended his diatribe by saying: “When it comes to Reverend Anita, what I will say to you is ‘pray for her.’” There is no doubt that, more than anybody else; it is Pastor Chris himself that is greatly in need of prayer. |

Fool sauer: Nigerians are really just as foolish as they come. A pastor says mas.turba.tion is no sin, it's business as usual. A pastor curls his hair and probably spends more on that hair than the average Nigerian spends on food, it's business as usual. A pastor dresses lavishly and invests tons of money on 'looking good for Christ', it's business as usual. The same pastor moves about with bodyguards, unable to call on his so-called God to protect him, yet it's business as usual. The very same pastor now divorces his wife, slanders her, and puts himself on the pedestal against his obviously very quiet, unassuming wife; yet IT'S BUSINESS AS USUAL. DAMN!!!

Ok. This is an old Igbo puzzle often asked by our in-laws when we come to marry their daughters. The conversation often goes thus:
PROSPECTIVE SON IN-LAW: Papa, there is this beautiful bird I saw that flew into your compound and I've come to see if you can give it to me.
PROSPECTIVE FATHER IN-LAW: (understanding fully well what the young man meant) My son, I have a question for you first. If you were married and on a journey with your wife and mother on the same boat and the boat is to sink, and you have the chance to save only one person out of the two (your wife or your mother) which one would you safe?
The son in-law often looks sheepishly at his mother who is just sitting right besides him. And she gives him a 'am watching you' kind of look. He turns to the 'to be' wife who also gives him a 'special' look!
Funny enough, the question seem to have not gotten a direct answer since 'men where boys'.
So I ask you, fellow niralander, if you were in a sinking boat with your wife and mother and you have the chance to save one of them who would you pick?
A LITTLE ADVICE* Be careful how you answer cos your wwife or mother might be a nairalander! |

This just hit me now! I missed my mum so much that I started thinking this weird thought. She's shown me much love and care that I can't wait to pay her back! All of a sudden the thought just hit me 'what if ssomeone else out there is your real mother?'
I have heard stories about perfect couples who kept the secret of the true parents of their foster children from them!
What will you do if you wake up one morning only to realize that your parents are not your real parents?
Have you ever thought of that? Think about it..and tell us.
For me....I will kill myself and run away! |
